Exams |
There will be one midterm exam and one final, close-book and close-note exams.
The final exam will be cumulative.
Midterm exam: 10:00 am - 10:50 am, Friday, February 10, AP&M 5402. Final exam: 10:30 am - 12:30 pm, Friday, March 24. (Place to be announced later.) Note: Neither make-up nor rescheduled exams will be allowed unless a proved written excuse (such as hospitalization, a family emergency, and a major religious activity) is provided sufficiently ahead of time. |
Grading | The final course grade will be determined based on the homework and exams with the weight: homework - 30%, midterm exam 20%, and final exam - 50%. |
Disability Accommodations | Students requesting accommodations for this course due to a disability must provide a current Authorization for Accommodation (AFA) letter (paper or electronic) issued by the Office for Students with Disabilities (OSD) Students are required to discuss accommodation arrangements with instructors and OSD liaisons in the department in advance of any exams or assignments. |
